L.A. Babylon.
I don't care what the haters say, I love Los Angeles. Especially mid-20th century Los Angeles, the seedier the better. That's why I love today's post at Pulp International with a treasure trove of photos of the noir side of the City of (Fallen) Angels, circa 1930-1950. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to watch "The Blue Dahlia" and read "Day of the Locust."

Poorly executed yet rare.....for sale too!
As I was reminded in a Kebab shop in Scotland: "Don't worry- is NATO country!"

Mondo Italiano
Pulpish Imagery Di Italia
Possibly the most offensive pop-up laden navigation since before Mozilla, but the images, though small, are worth a looky.
You'll say, "Mama Mia! Thats-a some-a speecy spicy meat-a-ball!"

The Refer Man
Lex10 here. As a brand, spanking, (see? I'm a little dirtier already!) new contributor to PCL, I finally have an outlet for some stuff I wanted to refer, but had no solid venue to refer it in. My regular blog GlyphJockey is more a place where I generally show stuff I've personally archived, plus my art. I do refer there, but it's more a bandwagon/holidays/deaths things (BTW R.I.P. Bobby "Boris" Pickett! Now you're a graveyard smash!) as opposed to hard referring. Did I say "refer" enough?
Here's my first post: SIVUPOLUT Finnish Pin-ups. Or should I say Piinukka Uuppaa. The images are not that large, and I get the impression that it's tied to some store there, but the reason to take a look is the interpolation of the American Pin-up magazines and paperbacks by Finnish publishers.
There's also an assload of other hardboiled/racy/noir imagery there too. Perfect for PCL, no?
Puuhakas Puna Tukka, indeed!
PMSFWUYWIACOS (pretty much safe for work unless you work in a convent or something)
Lastly, less words in future. I promise. If you care to criticize or praise on a personal level, go HERE
Thanks to Dante for the warm welcome.
